An old Hewlett term for laying silver over hold. 60/40 Pinot noir Chardonnay, has a note of funky earthy leesy cheesy note to the bouquet. A good bit of sweetness, light creamy texture and pretty floral notes. Finish 35+ very good

Unexpectedly loved this off dry sparkling! Just the lightest dried apricot and vanilla flavors to round out the crispness of the fruit. So perfect for a Dessert or cheese pairing.
